Five exhibitions by international and Austrian artists meet interactive formats such as a puzzle rally, disco drawing with live visuals, and painting with light.
Short guided tours, musical storytelling, and an open studio turn the museum into a vibrant space of discovery for visitors of all ages.

We offer our puzzle rally in German and English.
Our cinema transforms into a picturesque dance floor, its walls morphing into living sculptures. Grab a pair of headphones, follow the rhythm and sounds, and let your pen dance freely across the drawing surface. In the process, you become an interactive work of art yourself: we capture every voice in the room and convert them into a real-time visualisation, which we immediately project onto the walls!

At our various interactive stations, you’ll experiment with the art of painting with light: with music in your ears and guided solely by non-verbal communication, you and your partner—or a whole group—will create a collaborative masterpiece on our illuminated easels. Alternatively, pick up one of our fluorescent light tablets, sink into our cosy cinema seats, and let your imagination run wild.
